  • Publication number: 20170279283
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method of balance charging a plurality of battery cells serially connected to each other. The apparatus for balance charging the battery pack includes: a charger supplying a charge current to a plurality of battery; a voltage sensor sensing cell voltages of the plurality of battery cells; an integrated controller determining whether or not to perform a balance process and detecting a target battery cell to be balanced; balance resistors and switching elements, each of the balance resistors and switching elements being respectively connected to the plurality of battery cells in parallel; a balance controller controlling a switching element connected to the target battery cell to be balanced, thereby the cell voltage of the target battery cell is consumed by an associated balance resistor; and a charge current controller decreasing the charge current output from the charger.
